Ok sounds  like a new motor is needed foe the womp..

We had another fun night racing. We had 6 racer make the drive out with one of them being his 1st time out. Bruce been running ho cars with the local ho club so he knew his way around a slot car track. So after a some practice we threw him in and started the racing for the night. Up 1st was Trans am and Doc some how took the win over Al with Dave  on the last  step. Up next was Can Am  there were some fast cars but to many forced errors   Doc car wasn't  the fastest  one but was quick enough and three mistake  free rounds to take a easy win over Al and Greg taking 3rd. We lost two drivers so track call were in order for the last race of the night
It all came down to the last heat of the night. Doc had one tenth lead and both Al and Doc lined up side by side in the two fast lanes. The start buzzer sounded and off they went for 3min racing side by side the whole  way neither  able to pull more than a few car lengths from each other and when the time counted down to zero Doc able coast  and finish half a car length  in front of Al and hold par for the win. It close and a clean heat with both drivers keeping there cars in the slot and keeping of each other . Great racing there Al.. that was it for the night see you all in two weeks.

Me  no can post me pictures Me so sad

There  you go Rico. I would but already have a car being built.

O man come on give the old 917  one more run..

Last point race of the year and it  did end with out a little excitement and drama  added at the end.it was another light turn out with only  5 racers  making it out. We were hoping for more with many saying there were coming out.  Either  Al checks didn't clear  or traffic was a issue. We will never know which  was the case. So up 1st was  group c slot it and Doc car was the class  of the field and took a easy win over the field. Up next was the money  race and once again Doc had the car to beat.  Doc  started out in the white lane so he would have to wait  and see were every body was running before coming in on the last heat of the night.  Doc had a 2 lap cushion on the field and if could back up what he ran in the 1st two heats he was home free. What that saying never count your  chickens before they hatch. Well all night I been preaching  make sure you hook up your controller  correct and what do I do. Yep I did it. The green flag Flys and full blast into the turn 1 wall look down and see it hooked up wrong. Get it hooked up correctly  and find I smoked the brake pot. So  least to say red lane with no brakes  is some what of a challenge  to run.  Rico ended up taking the win followed  By Al and Doc taking 3rd .  That was the end of the night of racing .in the end Al got the bad luck he was looking for but not enough guys on the track to make up the points lead Doc had. Even so the turn out were on the light side the racing was ways very close and fun. Hopefully  we start to get people to start coming back out and racing  the 1/32 cars. See you all in two weeks
